I grew up in Connecticut and I had an uncle who lived in Burlington. We used to go up there every summer in the seventies and eighties, and enjoyed going to the beaches and fishing along Lake Champlain. It truly is a beautiful state despite its far left politics.
I remember seeing people catching some big sturgeon in the lake. I truly enjoyed summers in Vermont.
It was much different in the 60’s and 70’s - when common sense prevailed. Then the progressives started coming and the courts finished us off. I haven’t given up yet, but I live in an area where neighbors are close friends and criminals become either ‘missing persons’ or, out of respect for their families, homeless.
